Also, I’m sure I’m in the minority here, but I didn’t care much for Endgame. It did the job, it was fine, exciting at times (Steve Rogers wielding the hammer, etc.) but the plot is kind of hot garbage. The whole thing was a softball victory lap for the MCU anyway, it almost couldn’t fail at the box office (it would’ve…

I’m not sure why they scrapped all of Kang. Just recast Majors. They’ve done it before. Majors is a pretty gifted actor, but far from irreplaceable, and honestly his Kang was never that compelling to begin with, whether due to his own limitations or the material/directing/editing not being up to snuff. A new actor…

I’m rooting for Hannah Einbinder to win for Hacks mainly because my friend hates her with a passion and if she won against Meryl Streep and Carol Burnett it would be the funniest thing ever for me

I am so very, very sad we’re not getting this. I am downright inconschmolable

Line of the episode. And it went by so quick you could blink and miss it

I dunno, The Boys “satire” already failed to live up to reality for me when Stormfront had her superhero career instantly ruined by her being outed as an actual, literal Nazi. In 2024 I feel like that would be at worst a speed-bump for her publicity, and at best the perfect dogwhistle to her followers.

At least with this one, you could make the argument that people weren’t going to spend a lot of time in their rooms

I had the exact same reaction. Rolling my eyes right up to where I saw Lord and Miller at which point I thought “oh, okay then”.

One of the most successful things about the musical is how tight the writing is. From curtain up until down, not a second is wasted, it’s positively breathless. Which isn’t to say it’s rushed, it just adapts the parts that it needs and leaves the rest on the cutting room floor. The two-parter thing really worries me.…

I will always appreciate Glee for what it was, the biggest contradiction ever, not enough for it to be both “good” and “bad”, but it had to at once be both “best” and “worst”. Such a great and terrible show. The universe is a brighter place for it having existed.

I just finished a full rewatch of Community for the first time in years, and I have to say that while it remains some of the most brilliant writing on television, it doesn’t rewatch as well as some of its contemporaries. Like, I still found it generally pleasant, but the joy in the rewatch when you already know what’s…

I had no idea this was still going on after 6 seasons. Is the show actually worth watching? I’d kind of dismissed it as another ill-advised reboot after giving the Roseanne revival a couple episodes. I didn’t know Katey Sagal had joined; that’s a point in its favor.

Business culture rarely rewards folks for speaking up against the quality of other people’s work, especially the closer it gets to a deadline, and especially if they’re at a higher paygrade than you. I’d reckon there were plenty of “can you believe it” side-conversations in hushed tones though.

Let’s not forget how recently The Toymaker was brought back by David Tennant invoking a superstition outside of the universe.

I don’t know much about Dua Lipa and I don’t think she was a particularly strong host overall, but she held her own more than most musicians/sports celebrities/other non-comedians-or-actors that take on the hosting gig.

But Cobra Kai actually manages to bring them into a more real world setting

It’s been a long time since anything truly memorable for me came from SNL, but I imagine “Jumanji is a series of jungle emergencies” to be one of those things that sticks around

Clearly they are planning a reveal of Steamboat Willie as either the super-villain/hero that unites them, and I grudgingly respect the discipline with which they are avoiding this spoiler.

Hey, he was the best part about that movie.

I never got the love for this show. I remember when I first read about it before it aired, it was supposed to be a lot more of Clark being a messy teenager, learning how to use his powers responsibly. Instead we got the blandest possible take on Clark Kent, essentially already fully-formed as his adult self. And a…
